On my card today I've used a brand new, and sooo cute little image, it's called Sprite from the Aurora 2 Collection by Victoria Case for SCACD,this collection is being released today! This spesific image, Sprite, will not be sold as a single stamp, you'll get her as a bonus stamp with the whole stamp sheet. The sentiment is by Whipper Snapper Designs.

Take a look at the wonderful cards made by my DT sisters over at the Friday Sketchers blog, hope you'll find inspiration to make a card and take part in the challenge, there's a great prize to win sponsored by KLM Digi Stamps.

Today we start our vaction, we'll drive to Oslo and spend two days there before heading to Denmark. We'll get season passes for Djurs Sommerland, a big amusement park, and then we pretty much have our days cut out for us! *LOL*We've been there several times before, and the kids love it there, we do too!

Normally we go island hopping in Greece every summer, but this year I have my vacation so late. There's too hot for us in Greece now, too crowded with tourists. And with the recent problems with strikes in Greece, airplanes never coming or leaving, we decided not do that trip this summer. We'll miss it like crazy, and it will be hard not visiting our Greek friends, but we will have an extra long stay there next year.

By all means - we LOVE Denmark too, we are really looking forward to this vacation!I will not have acess to the internet while I'm away, but I have a couple of cards scheduled for my blog this Friday, and some sweet stuff coming on Sunday, so make sure you stop by to see what it is!

Hello dear friends! A new Friday with a new fun sketch at the Friday Sketchers blog, this time made by the talented Jeanette! I got to try out some new stuff on this card, such as the lovely stamp called Bear and Butterflies by Lili of the Valley. I colored him with my Prismas, added stickles to the butterflies. The nice punched flower edge on the patterned paper is made with my new set of Martha Stewart corner and edge punches, Pansy is the name. New stuff is also the butterfly punch from EK Success, and the cute heart pins by Maya Road. The sentiment is by Whipper Snapper Designs.

Hi friends! Finally I was able find a tiny spot of time to make a new card! It's not easy these days with closed school and kindergarten, three boys wanting me to have a full day planned for them every day - exhausting!

Well, over to my card, it's a sketch challenge this week over at the SCACD store blog. Suzanne made this wonderful sketch for us.

I love these fun and wonderful stamps by Kraftin' Kimmie, and this gal, Francesca, have been featured by me on a card I made three weeks ago. Actually this stamped image was meant to use on that card, but it was badly stamped, she missed some fingers... I sometimes play with my mishaps, use my drawing pen to add some extra, just for the fun of it. This time I decided to use the image on a card! I hope Kimmie won't mind my "make-over" of Francesca! (Please forgive me, but I had fun doing it!)*LOL* I have no shame, I'm entering it to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge blog! This week they ask us to use the color pink on our cards.I also entered it to the CAS-tastic Challenge blog, they ask for CAS cards using kraft paper this week.

I've colored with my Prismas, added a Prima Cameo Rose, some Kaisercraft Pearls and the butterfly is my new punch, if you like it you can join my candy to win such a punch! Just click on the picture below my blog banner to get to the post. The sentiment is by Whipper Snapper Designs.I get my Kraftin' Kimmie stamps at Susana's SCACD, you should check out the fabulous new mermaid stamps over there!

Here you can see how the "make-over" was done: I gave her eyelids, eyelashes, new pupils, lips, a purse and new shoes. Fun!
